Putting Money Where Mouths Are: Media Donations Favor Dems 100-1
The New York Times' refusal to publish John McCain's rebuttal to Barack Obama's Iraq op-ed may be the most glaring example of liberal media bias this journalist has ever seen.

 Chris Matthews Admits He's In The Tank For Obama
Chris Matthews Admits He's In The Tank For Obama
"You know what?" Matthews said. "I want to do everything I can to make this thing work, this new Presidency work."

Before the questions and attacks begin, here's why this is important: Media bias, and a "journalist's role." Should journalists, as Matthews suggests, try to "help" the administration... or just report on it? [From HuffPo] picked by ImNotBlue 2 weeks ago

 Liberal Media Bias Working Overtime
Liberal Media Bias Working Overtime
With a headline like "Bush Motorcade Kills Cop" you would picture Bush running over some poor cop. The actual story is a motorcycle crashed his bike while riding as part of the motorcade. Must be some ultra-liberal rag right? Well, it was Time Magazine. picked by 2manyusernames 1 year ago

 The rest of what General Sanchez said...
The rest of what General Sanchez said...
It seems that the media only reported HALF of retired General Ricardo Sanchez's feelings towards the war in Iraq.

Funny how they neglected to include the portions where he said, “[To many of those in the media] the truth is of little to no value if it does not fit your own preconceived notions, biases and agendas."

Looks like he could have used himself as evidence. picked by ImNotBlue 1 year ago

 Reporters Say Networks Put Wars on Back Burner
Reporters Say Networks Put Wars on Back Burner
"According to data... coverage of Iraq has been “massively scaled back this year.” Almost halfway into 2008, the 3 newscasts have shown 181 weekday minutes of Iraq coverage, compared with 1,157 minutes for all of 2007."

So is this (a) bias, (b) evidence the public has lost interest, (c) sign things are going better over there, (d) all of the above, (e) none of the above? picked by ImNotBlue 5 months ago

Documentary to explore media impact on voters. [video]
On Election day twelve Obama voters were interviewed extensively right after they voted to learn how the news media impacted their knowledge of what occurred during the campaign. These voters were chosen for their apparent intelligence/verbal abilities and willingness to express their opinions to a large audience. The rather shocking video below seeks to provide some insight into which informatio... read full post picked by shuallyo 1 day ago

 Is GE's Bailout Money A "Thanks" That Will Eventually Reach The Left-Leaning MSNBC?
Is GE's Bailout Money A "Thanks" That Will Eventually Reach The Left-Leaning MSNBC?
Isn't it interesting that on the very day that Barack Obama wins the presidency, the U.S. Treasury department announces a change in its $700 billion Wall Street bailout program--a change that would benefit MSNBC, the most pro-Obama news network? And also benefit NBC, which is also no slouch when it comes to pro-Obama-tude? The common connection, of course, is GE [who owns NBC]...
